Walpole Engine 1

The Walpole FD continues to run a 1985 Mack CF pumper, built by Emergency One, out of their Summer St. substation. The truck was overhauled by the Department of Corrections in 2010 to extend its life. This older Mack pump fits perfectly in the smaller station where it's mainly utilized by the call force. WFD will man the apparatus as needed for events, including Patriots games. The South Station is located less than a mile from Gillette Stadium.
